Adding images to the webpage does not harm your SEO. But if you create images instead of contents it will affect SEO. Search engine cannot process images to get contents. For example if you have an image only website, search engine will not have opportunity to get to know about your contents. Hence you will not get SEO rank. Also images will affect website download speed. Website download speed is a SEO factor. So do not stuff your pages with images.

 I think that kachu is right! At least I am sure about this part: "images will affect website download speed. Website download speed is a SEO factor. So do not stuff your pages with images. " Well said, SEO friend! Welcome, dear SEO friend!

Images are a good thing to bring readers closer to your direction. Over stuffing isn't a good thing. Images renamed with a keyword is okay,but shouldn't be abused. Of course only use  images that you have  rights to.

Images in a website can only give an impressive look to your website. But if we talk about SEO, caterpillars never read images. Therefore, using the alt tag for your images should also be read by search engines.

Now a days images would be very helpful to SEO coz readers need visual to see the more of what they are reading.

Well, I am believed that an alt tag on an image is good for google images; used for seo it is only worth while if it is also a link.

Nor only content nor only images work in SEO. Both have equal importance content can be read by search engine and the images help the visitors to watch and understand what exactly the content is about.

Just adding images wont serve any purpose. You need to add links to it & add description so that it will be indexed in google images. So whenever somebody searches for a specific picture in Google Picture, your pics may turn up & chances are that they will be taken to your site. Icy & Simple but above all...highly defective.

 Hi To All

Just adding images will not serve any purpose. You need to add links to it and add description so that it will be indexed in google images. So whenever someone searches for a particular image in Google Image, your pictures may turn up and chances are that he will be taken to your site.

Thanks and Regards

When I visit ifp3 sites, I see that the majority of them have links to Facebook, LinkedIn, or Twitter..... Are these social media sites working as advertising for you or are they just for fun? Has anyone sold an image to a total stranger through a social media introduction?

Seems to me like most new business is received through word of mouth and Facebook is a great way for your clients "friends" and family to find you...... Is this true?

Hello MaryOlson.. here you have started a good conversation. Yes.. images is important in our daily life including SEO. We are well known about "A picture is worth 1000 words". Same theory apply when Search Engine Optimizer when put the images with Alt tag.. it gives a visible result as the high ranking in Search Engine Result page.

So.. we should have no doubt in mind about the importance of images on our professional life..

Thanks & have a nice day....

Including image to the web site does not damage your SEO. But if you create pictures instead of material it will impact SEO. Internet search results cannot process pictures to get material.

Caterpillars? See some here: small green caterpillar (http://www.seo-forum-seo-luntan.com/animals/small-green-caterpillars/). :)
